  "textContent": "Bandai Namco announced a new line of figures in its Machiboke / Waiting for You series, and it involves Solid Snake and other familiar entities from _Metal Gear Solid 1_ and _2._ The four new figures will launch Gashapon capsule machines in Japan this week. It will cost 400円 per try. There’s no worldwide release for it, but we will likely see them eventually due to the Ape Escape Machiboke ones showing up in North America. Full sets of these types of figures also sometimes show up on Bandai Namco's Amazon storefront.\n\nThis _Metal Gear Solid_ Machiboke figure gacha features two versions of Solid Snake and two kinds of Metal Gears that look like they’re waiting around for someone or something. In terms of the character, there’s the standard version of him from _Metal Gear Solid 1_ and one of him hiding under a cardboard box from _Metal Gear Solid 2_. Both the Metal Gear RAY and REX are also shown in a relaxed state. There’s no “secret” character in this set.\n\nHere’s a closer at all four of the official figures and the official marketing for them.\n\nImages via Bandai Namco and Konami\n\nThere are more _Metal Gear_ series games headed to modern console soon. At the February 2026 State of Play, Konami revealed _Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Volume 2_. That compilation will make _Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots_ and  _Metal Gear Solid:_ Peace Walker playable on the Switch, Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC.\n\nThe _Metal Gear Solid_ Machiboke figures are available in Bandai Namco Gashapon capsule machines in Japan now, and there’s no word regarding when we might see them worldwide.\n\nWe may earn a commission if you purchase from certain links.
